Not displaying flash

I spent 90 minutes in live chat yesterday without a resolution or follow up.
Suddenly Firefox can not display video, animation, flash, etc. It replaces this with white space (no errors, no red X).
I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled with no success.
I have re-downloaded flash 10.1 with no success.
Content settings are set to load images automatically.
Clearing cache/history does not help.
This issue happens ONLY in Firefox. Chrome, Opera etc perform as normal.
This is a Windows 7, 64-bit OS.

Thanks for proposing a solution.
This is an old year old question so I will lock the thread.
Anyone reading this please either start your own question using the link [/questions/new/] or try to look at current advice.
Note at the current date Firefox especially firefox on Windows is experiencing problems with Flash Player. In many cases users have had to downgrade from Flash Player 11.3 to the secure Flashplayer 10.3 or he not secure Flash 11.2.
Developers from Flash & Firefox have been cooperating in looking for solutions, and at the time of this post a new release has been made by Adobe that it is hoped will resolve some issues. The release may not even be seen yet on all Adobe pages, and and we are watching for reports from those who try it. It is available from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ (Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 for Firefox)
General information and the specific issue is dealt with in these articles.
* [[Flash 11.3 crashes]] (Includes detailed uninstall and install information)
* [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]] (At this moment in time be careful when considering which version to choose.)

  • Safari will not display flash sites

    safari will not display flash sites?  Instead it will show a small box that says "flash" and once you click on it, it then displays the flash site!!
    Any ideas as to why this is happening?
    I am running .....
    Vendor: Oracle Corporation
    Version: Java SE 7 Update 25
    and
    Flash Player: 11.8.800.94

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • WinCE Projector does not display flash file properly

    Hi,
    I built a projector application for loading flash files on a
    Windows CE 5.0 based embedded device. I am using Flash player 7 for
    WinCE5.0. The projector was built using embedded VC++ for an ARM
    processor.
    The basic idea of this flash application is content delivery.
    So, this projector loads a container flash file stored locally on
    the device. This container flash file communicates with a remote
    server(webserver or FMS) to retrieve content (flash files, audio,
    video, images, text etc.). Right now, I am trying to load a series
    of flash files from the remote server - one by one - like a series
    of ads.
    The problem is that, the series of flash files loaded does
    not display properly inside the main container file. I am using a
    loader component in the main container flash file. All the flash
    files loaded must play full screen. But some files do not play
    fullscreen. It automatically shrinks to a smaller random size. This
    behaviour does not repeat. It occurs randomly for any of the series
    of files I am trying to load in the container flash.
    When i tested the application on the desktop, it works fine.
    But on the device, the loaded flash files shrink automatically. Can
    someone explain why this is happening? Is this problem usually
    associated with flash player on embedded devices?
    I am stuck with this problem for a long time. I tired
    different methods to get around it, but could not succeed. So I
    would really appreciate it, if anyone can throw some light on this
    issue and preferably provide a solution?
    Thank you,
    Jothishankar

    I am using Flash Professional CS6.
    It lets me edit all the symbols and bitmaps, and key frames.
    However, it just publishes as a SWF a bit incorrectly.

  • Dreamweaver 8 templates not displaying flash files

    Dear friends:
    I have developed an interactive banner with animation and
    links using Flash 8. I imbeded the banner into a Dreamweaver 8.0.2
    document and published it to test the banner. Everything worked
    just fine. I then saved that document as a template and created my
    editable regions. When I ran the preview, everything was still
    working well, I then created a new HTML documant using that
    template and published it. I found that the HTML page elements
    posted just fine but my Flash banner would not load. The browser
    kept trying to load the file and stated, "one item remaining" in
    the status bar indefinately. I have never run into this problem in
    the past and the only thing that that I have changed is adding the
    new active control plugin for Flash and updating Dreamweaver to
    8.0.2. Any assistance you could lend would be greatly appreciated,
    Kindest Regards,
    Mr. Grey

    What you will have to do is to delete and then remake this
    inserted Flash
    element, and make sure you use a ROOT RELATIVE link to the
    Flash, rather
    than a document relative one. That would make your code look
    like this -
    ,'width','770','height','284','src','/assets/hfcchome','quality',
    and it will then work.

    Thanks for the reply and the link.  The driver update did not work because it says I have the latest one installed - even though the driver date is 10/8/2009.  It's the Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator HD, version 8.15.10.1968.
    Can you believe that...the latest is from 2009?!  I tried to install an updated version anyway - first by going to the Intel site.  I found a driver update from Jan 2012 that matches my system, but the install aborts with the error message "A customized computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update Utility is not able to update the driver."
    So, I searched through the HP support site and finally found a link to my computer:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=4121236&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&task=&lang=e n&cc=us
    And I downloaded and installed the "same" driver anyway:
    Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD Driver ►
    2009-12-04 , Version:8.15.10.1968 B, 29.91M
    This package contains the driver for the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD in the supported notebook/laptop models.
    But it does not correct the problem.
    Maybe this problem is because of an old graphics driver - but this is apparently a dead end for me.
    Is there any possibility it is caused by something else?

  • Insert PDF with Flash into another PDF and it does not display.

    When attempting to insert an Adobe Acrobat file with flash elements into another Adobe Acrobat file, the latter will not display the file on screen. Instead it shows this message "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat X or Adobe Reader X, or later." Please help.

    Yes I would have thought so. Adobe Acrobat and Reader have the ability to view flash content items however this is not the case. I will explain step by step what I am doing. I have done this for years before and I have recently formatted my computer and had to reinstall the software.

  • Flash movie not displayed correctly in IE 8 on some Windows OS

    Has anyone seen this problem?
    I'm using CS4 to export a basic flash movie with embed tags pre scripted...
    And the issue is that on some OS systems using Vista or Windows 7 and IE 8 as a primary browser, it appears that IE 8 is not displaying the flash banner completely.... its CROPPING it off... This is very strange because the banner works fine in FireFox, IE7,Opera,Chrome but not I.E.8 on some OS systems...
    If you google "Flash not displaying correctly in IE 8" you'll get alot of people with the same issues but no real definate fix...
    Are there any suggestions as to what i could try?
    Do i need different flash embed tags? Or is this a user issue?
    Please Advise as soon as possible...
    Thanks

    I'm sorry, i forgot to explain that I didn't upload the flash published html because it did and produced the exact same results.
    The flash published still got cropped off on 1 vista os(I.E 8) running from a laptop and 1 windows 7(I.E. 8) latop os...
    Its good to hear that you're able to see it clearly... however in my QA efforts, i've been asked to fix the issue or drop the flash banner all together.
    I've tried every which way, i've even converted the embed tags (not uploaded by the way) to a js script and it STILL gets cropped of on 2 ie8 run OS systems...
    And now i'm not sure what else to try on my end.
    I'm currious if because this is an XML driven flash banner, this may be an issue? But it still doesn't explain why some people can see this in IE 8 as you can and others get a cropped banner like in my screen shot sample.
    Again i invite everyone in the forum to take a look at the sample links, as i'd be curious to see who else is seeing this.
    By the way "kglad" Thank you so much... please keep the suggestions coming... but everything you've suggested, i've tried.
    This is very perplexing. Is this a setting issue? or is there some setting on the user side i'm not aware of? Either way, as usual... the flash developer is blamed so i must find a solution.

  • Flash forms -- Not displaying in IE

    This is my first foray into flash forms, and I discovered
    yesterday that while they look/work beautifully in Firefox
    (2.0.0.4), they're not displaying at all in IE (6 or 7).
    I'm using it to force the user to input their date in a
    uniform format, so I'm sure there's a non-flash workaround. I'd
    like to get this sorted out though, so my future work with flash
    can be more involved.
    Code is attached. Please let me know if I can provide further
    clarification.

    Michael --
    Thanks for your help.
    I think I've narrowed the problem down -- it's not that it
    won't display my flash form in IE, it's that it won't display it in
    a Fusebox environment. I'm going to poke over at their site to see
    what they have to say -- I suspect I'll need to upgrade the version
    of Fusebox that I'm using. :)

  • Flash Files Will Not Display in Dreamweaver

    Flash files will not display in Dreamweaver or in any
    browser. If I insert a Flash button, text or other file, when I hit
    the "play" button the flash place holder disapears, and the Flash
    file never displays. In the Property Inspector, the file is always
    "undefined" even when I save the file to my root folder with a
    name. When I hit the "Edit" button, I get the message that the file
    could not be found on my local disk. It's like Dreamweaver fails to
    create or place a Flash file. Help please!

    You will have to rename the hard drive for dreamweaver to

    The ' is causing dw to not find the path.
    other symptoms would be dw nagging that the "homepage" is not

  • The new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.110 does not display images in the flash movie.

    In the new version  of Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.110 the images are not displayed. In previous versions they are displayed. Tested on several computers. This is not a local problem. This is a problem of Adobe. The bad news is that the early versions are very hard to find and reinstall it.
    Many different systems tested. And all browsers.
    Now there is no big image.

    hi i have noticed the same problem. also with Chrome and FP ver 11.5.31.2and Firefox and Safari with FP 11.5.502.110
    it seems that MovieClipLoader class not returning onLoadInit event. I use to add a fadein function on loadInit to fade in the loaded images. with the latest Flash PLayer versions this is not activated so you cannot see the loaded images.
    I have tested this on 3 different systems and the problem is the same. I have not updated my FP for IE. There, the older FP still works well.
    test systems
    Mac OS LionSafari and FP 11.5.502.110 --- DOES NOT WORK WELL
    Windows 7 64 bit
    chrome 23.0.1271.95 with FP 11.5.31.2  - DOES NOT WORK WELL

  • Latest flash version will not display images or video

    Latest flash version will not display images or video in 2 x Windows 7 Pro 64bit machines, 1 x Windows 7 Home Premiums, and 1 x XP SP3 under VMWare Workstation 7. Problem plagues Firefox, Chrome, and IE on all systems. Also running Norton Security from Comcast on all machines. Disabling does not appear to help. Suggestions?

    Not sure, this is the one that I really want to view. I am using the latest 11.6 ending in 168. Curious you got the images. The product ones act like they should be displaying for me but don’t. Can you do a capture of the images? The text with small images sometimes comes through and sometimes not. I wonder if there is a problem on the server end.
    When I talk to the Customer Service people they claim to have no reports of problems, but like the sports pro about to be traded, they may be the last ones to know…

  • Flash Player linux, grey box issue (youtube vids and some applets do not display)

    I posted this question on my distro-specific forum as well as linuxquestions.org, however it appears to  be a unique problem, so here it is:
    When viewing videos on youtube.com, most other websites, and when trying  to run certain flash games, the flash applet will not display (though  the audio will play). Instead of displaying the flash applet, there  will be a grey box where the flash video or applet would normally be.
    This problem occurs on Firefox and Chromium, but not on Opera.
    My Specs are as follows:
    Distro: PCLinuxOS 2010 (32-bit)
    flash-player-plugin: 10.1-2pclos2010
    firefox: 3.6.6-1pclos2010
    swfdec has never been installed (to my knowledge)
    I did a lot of investigating about the problem but have turned up no  solutions thus far. Here are my results.
    Flash videos and applets which allow  access to the settings menu (like youtube played from their website) do  not display, however flash videos and applets which do NOT allow access  to the settings menu (including youtube videos embedded in other  websites) WILL display.
    Reinstalling flash-player-plugin and firefox through synaptic does  not solve the problem (though note that PCLOS works with rpm files, not  deb files. apt4rpm does not support the remove --purge operation,  however reinstalls are said to overwrite custom configs with stock  ones.)
    Creating a new firefox profile and/or starting FFox in safe-mode  does not solve the problem
    Creating another user and running FFox from that user will  properly display flash videos
    Comparing default plugins between my main user and new user shows  that there is no difference. So this likely rules out a defective  extension or plugin binary.
    Deleting ~/tmp/plugtmp* folders when FFox is closed does not solve  the problem.
    Removing the ~/.macromedia and ~/.adobe folders does not solve the  problem. (have checked permissions between the new test user and main  user, and they are equivalent)
    Downloading libflashplayer.so from the Adobe website and copying it  to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins has no effect on the problem.
    I'm thinking that there might be somewhere else that flash stores  configurations for my user, and that maybe the settings there are  corrupted and would need to be purged. However frantic googling has  turned up nothing useful so far.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

    The problem, at least in my case, was QtCurve's opacity. If I have opacity set to less than 100%, flash would not display for sites like Youtube and Vimeo, but worked elsewhere.
    The solution for me was to go into qtcurve's settings, and put npviewer.bin in the application exceptions section for window and menu opacity. Doing that, I was able to keep my transparent menus, and also use flash everywhere.
    You can find out what the application name is by launching your browser of choice in a terminal with qtcurve debug turned on, like so:
    QTCURVE_DEBUG=1 firefox
    If you watch through the lines that start with "QtCurve" you'll see "Application name". Look for the one that shows up when you try to load a video. In my case it was npviewer.bin. In yours, it might be nspluginviewer or something else. If you add an exception for that specific application, you'll fix your problem without having to compromise on your theme.

  • Flash not displaying photos in Flash photo Gallery

    I have several web sites that use a flash photo gallery to display the photos. All worked until a few months ago when the photo were not displayed to users who used Mozilla Firefox, or MAC users using Safari for their browsers. The albums were blank, the thumbnails were blank. Yet if you used Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, all photos displayed perfectly. I have been to the Firefox forums and they point to Flash. I was using Flash 11.5.502.146, then I downgraded to Flash 10.3. To my surprise all photos display now on my Firefox browse V18.0. So there is definitely a problem with the newer Flash displaying photos in a flash gallery. What can be done to fix this?
